Senator Tom Cotton [R-Ark] has proposed a bill that would prevent car rental companies from providing customers with electric vehicles unless requested. It’s called the Requiring EV Notification and Transparency Act —or the RENT ACT- of 2024. Cotton told Fox News rental companies should—quote—“not advance Democrats’ radical climate agenda and make customers rent EVs if they don’t want to.” Should customers be given an electric vehicle without optin in the law would allow them to terminate their rental contract without fees.
